Dad brought a big fish

The eaglets are cute, but the sibling rivalry has already started

Mamicja , thank you for the videos

It didn't take long.... ...as long as they're equally strong and the fights are balanced....
on August 3rd they were still peacefully together

Sibling rivalry got worse and worse, SE27 got more and more aggressive and didn't allow SE28 to eat anymore. SE28 has been without food for a few days and became quite weak.

Now the camera is switched off, I don't know whether the SE28 is still alive or not.

This season is really difficult in so many nests to watch.

In this nest it is very seldom to come to an happy end. Something happens always. I observed the nest 3 seasons in row.

Birdfriend

thank you. I don't follow this nest very frequently, the happier i am to announce this good news:

28-08-2021 14:15 (local time)
finally SE28 sports a HUGE crop after a few days without feeding - a beautiful sight after all


SE27 had a huge crop already before the feeding, so let SE28 eat in peace


here's the video by Sea-EagleCAM4, from which i took the pictures:
